"What if we experienced cities not by sight or smell but by hearing them? A project by Parsons The New School for Design called SoundAffects hopes to do that by turning everyday things like weather and traffic into sounds.

With sensors placed around a New York City block from 13 to 22 May, SoundAffect tracked objects, temperature, light, weather and so on, assigning each variable a color and sound. The Parsons team also conducted "˜experiments' around the block, such as letting loose flocks of colored balloons, to see how the disruptions affected the music."

"At www.mta.me, Conductor turns the New York subway system into an interactive string instrument. Using the MTA's actual subway schedule, the piece begins in realtime by spawning trains which departed in the last minute, then continues accelerating through a 24 hour loop. The visuals are based on Massimo Vignelli's 1972 diagram."

I made a chair like that when I was doing my carpentry class in middle school. There's is nicer, mine kinda veered back and forth. I also made a Don Cherry Bubba Beer keg into a lamp. I still have the lamp.
